Chapter 4: Windrie's confession
"Ma'am, Lt. Bulb here to see you with Major Flam and Ser. Windrie." someone called over his shoulder. Bulb came in with Flam and Windrie in tow.
"Lieutenant?" I said, trying not to laugh at the look on Windrie and Flam's faces.
"permission to interrogate soldiers?"
"permission granted…" I said, smirking at Windrie. He rolled his eyes.
"okay fine what ever. If it means we can eat…I did it okay?" Flam said, slightly rolling his eyes. I crossed my arms and nodded.
"okay Flam you can go. Tell Corporal Freeze you have my permission as well as the rest of the camp to eat. Bulb you may go as well. Windrie stay put." I ordered, Flam and Bulb left. Windrie just looked at me annoyed and stubbornly.
"what?"
"you won't leave this office until you say you're guilty as well." I said.
"I'm not stooping to that level. My ego level would go below zero." He said, sitting down with a smile. He knew I wouldn't keep him in here until I was satisfied.
"well than make yourself comfortable cause you're not leaving this office until you say it." I said, leaning back in the chair. I wasn't leaving him alone either, so I wasn't leaving. Fun, fun, alone in a room with the rudest man under my command. I was just about to call Flood when he came in.
"ma'am I called the general he said he will come sometime in the following days. Oh and please sign these." He said before I could ask, laying papers on my desk. I sighed, signing them and handing them back to him. He turned around, looking curiously at Windrie and then back at me. "I'm not even asking. Ma'am would you like any lunch or anything?" he asked. I shook my head. "but ma'am you need the energy. If they will attack you need to be ready." Flood said.
"I have all the energy I need. Windrie, you can go get some. You may leave now too I guess." I said, standing up and looking into the files, acting like I was looking for something.
"huh? I thought you said I was trapped in here." He said, standing up slowly.
"no. you need as much energy as possible. If they do attack I'm counting on you." I said. I really was-even though it pained my ego to say it.
"Ah okay. Hope to see you tonight as usual." Windrie smirked, a wink over his shoulder as he left. I rolled my eyes and picked up a paper weight that was laying next to me. Throwing it in his direction, it hit him in the back and he whirled around in amusement.
"you will never see me in your quarters at night if I have anything to say about it." I snapped back. He wasn't funny-not at all.
"oh and call me Hayate toots, I hate Windrie." He said, leaving my sight. The nerve! Me! Toots!
"what a wacko." Flood said plainly. I nodded, sighing as I sat back down. "you sure you don't want food?"
"yes I'm sure you may leav-"
"I'll leave now then." Flood said, interrupting me as he left.
